Vivid works of art

I went to the Chaoshan Shantang Culture Exhibition Hall yesterday, and today I came to visit the most famous old site of Shantou Shantang. Well, I feel that language is not good at describing it. Here are two temples and one wall. The two temples are wooden structures, interconnected on the left and right, respectively the Guanyin Temple and the Dafeng Temple. That wall is the famous Shantou's famous 'Nine Dragon Wall'! But this is different from what I saw in Beijing before. The dragons on this wall are all three-dimensional. Under the light, they are all vivid and seem to come out of the wall. Not only this dragon wall, all the characters and beasts on the buildings here are three-dimensional, and they all have storytelling. Take a photo with your mobile phone and zoom in to see that each character seems to be talking. There is also a story content explanation next to it, which shows that the carver is excellent! There is no admission ticket here, anyone can come in for a visit or prayer. The Buddha inside is solemn, but also good at suffering in the world, I hope everyone has a good heart.
